what would cause my incision site to just now get red?

as many of you know I had a hernia surgery about 6 weeks ago, well on one side of the incision site is getting red and warm to the touch, does anyone know what could cause it to be doing that now? Seems like that would have happened way before now if something was wrong, I go see my doc Monday, should I not wait and just go to ER?

Answer #1

Quite often red and hot to touch indicates infection. I think you should see a doctor soon.

Answer #2

I go see my doc tomorrow morning, I hope its not infected

Answer #3

Me too, good luck.

Answer #4

Thanks and good luck to you :-):-)
